Context of Psalms 108:9
7God has spoken from his sanctuary: “In triumph I will parcel out Shechem and measure off the Valley of Sukkoth. 8Gilead is mine, Manasseh is mine; Ephraim is my helmet, Judah is my scepter. Moab is my washbasin, on Edom I toss my sandal; over Philistia I shout in triumph.” 10Who will bring me to the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom? 11Is it not you, God, you who have rejected us and no longer go out with our armies?

- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 9Moab - This is fallen from Psalm 60:8. The only change is in the close of the verse. Instead of “Plilistia, triumph thou because of me” Psalm 60:8, it is here, “Over Philistia will I triumph.” Why the change was made is unknown.Read the comment
